We made it to Barcelona and are still standing!


What a day (or two) this has been! We hit the ground running taking in many sites, the most spectacular of which was the Sagrada Familia, designed by Antonin Gaudi. Our tour began with a bus tour to Montjuic, giving us a panoramic view of the port and city of Barcelona. After touring the Sagrada Familia, after a quick bite of lunch we toured a bit seeing more Gaudi and Modernista architecture. We then went to the Barri Gothic seeing the Santa Maria del Mar and on to the Barcelona Cathedral. More details later. Our legs and bodies were very tired and headed for our hotel in Sitges. After a shower, splendid dinner, several took a quick stroll on the beach before retiring for bed. Sleep in a bed will be a very good thing! We tried to send a pic but dealing with a computer in Spanish is too much for our tired brains tonight.
